Summary: This place is gorgeous and has everything you need for a phenomenal getaway. Water, woods, seclusion, comfort, astounding views...it's hard to beat. And the spa bathrooms! I'm biased though. I came here to revisit the past as my grandparents' built the original home. Seeing their pictures and hearing the stories, I wanted to see for myself what amazing place it was. Door County Cabin collective just took it a step further (maybe a million) and made it just spectacular. It's a treasure place to stay and spend family or friend time. Thanks for more memories ❤️

Summary: We decided to try a winter getaway in Door County in the middle of March allowing for a high-end experience at reasonable price! The County is virtually a ghost town allowing you to take in the beauty at a comfortable pace from Egg Harbor to Gills Rock aka 'The End'. Peninsula State Park, White Gull Inn, Wild Tomato, Mink Basin (best onion rings!) and Jen's Windy Road were all enjoyed with no crowds to contend with making eating and site seeing a pleasure! We discovered a few shops and markets open this time of year. The home has a top-of-the-line (Viking) kitchen with all the amenities, super comfy bedrooms (especially the master bedroom with port holes for lake Michigan viewing and many unique artistic features to explore throughout the home. We enjoyed an afternoon sitting around a bon fire watching Lake Michigan in all its glory awaken from its winter slumber including the most spectacular moon gazing for a couple of nights. The game room provided hours of laughter and fun shooting pool and darts, who knew my sister was a pool shark! Jeremy, our host, was excellent! He provided detailed information before and throughout our stay adding to an already exceptional experience! We loved it!

Summary: Staying at Porte Haven was on my bucket list so I jumped at the chance when a long weekend opportunity opened up in early March. My husband and I were joined by our young adult children and family dog. We made so many memories in 3 short days. The views from the house are amazing. It feels like you are sitting right on top of the water. The sunrises were breathtaking and we even saw the northern lights! The house is so wonderful that you don’t want to leave it. I loved the cozy livingroom with a fireplace and bookshelf full of amazing titles. The gormet kitchen and large table for family meals. We watched the badger basketball game on the huge tv in the lower level while playing pool and darts. The bathrooms were a spa experience! I can only imagine how great the multiple outdoor living areas are in the warmer weather. The bonus of off season was zero crowds when we left the house to hike or watch the sunset at Ellison Bay County park (highly recommend). In the 3 days we watched Deaths Door go from completely covered in ice and snow to almost fully opened with floating ice. Who could say no to a quick ice bath followed by a steam shower on our last morning! Don’t hesitate to book this cabin any time of the year. You will be guaranteed a memory filled vacation.

Summary: This property has such a great variety of beautiful spaces. There's lots of room to spread out, it would be really great for a group. There was more outdoor space than we expected, and we hope to come back during the warm season to enjoy the outdoors more. The views were amazing. We stayed in January and enjoyed watching the ever-changing ice landscape on the water, along with the ferry, a flock of loons, and a bald eagle hunting the shoreline that flew close to the cabin windows. We cooked up a storm in the well-stocked kitchen, and we especially loved the game room! House was very clean, and host communication was excellent. We love Porte Haven!

Summary: The property was so beautiful, the full windows gave us a view of Washington Island, Plum Island and even the Detroit Islands. Watching the ferry come and go was a daily pleasure. The home was beautiful, well laid out and the eclectic bathrooms were amusing to experience. The quiet winter weather made this a perfect spot to read, play board games and venture out on walks to view the Niagara Escarpment along the water. A must see place summer or winter.

Summary: Porte Haven is a true gem on Lake Michigan, and as return guests, we can't recommend it enough! The master suite, with its stunning port hole window views, offers a serene retreat. We loved the amazing steam shower for ultimate relaxation. The cozy den, complete with a beautiful fireplace and comfy couch, was perfect for unwinding. The lower level game room, with a pool table and dartboard, added a fun touch to our stay. Door County’s charm never disappoints, and we’ll continue to indulge in the tranquility and beauty of Porte Haven for years to come. Simply perfect!
